Power is supplied to a detector via the GDP terminal [+ / -] and using the 'S' panel [GAS DETECTOR] terminal [+ / -].
For a BMS alarm relay use [COM] and [NC] on the detector and the [open/close] switch terminal on the panel.
BMS are volt free connections.
Audible Alarm Switch
There is a switch on the detector board identified as [Buzzer On/Off].
The detector can be configured to have an audible alarm or not when gas levels reach the alarm
set points. The alarm will continuously sound – there are no provisions to silence the alarm, gas
levels must drop to a safe value for the alarm to stop.
